West Syrian

Famous quotes containing the words west and/or syrian:

“God forbid that any book should be banned. The practice is as indefensible as infanticide.”

“If in that Syrian garden, ages slain,
You sleep, and know not you are dead in vain,
Nor even in dreams behold how dark and bright
Ascends in smoke and fire by day and night
The hate you died to quench and could but fan,
Sleep well and see no morning, son of man.”
—A.E. (Alfred Edward)
